the mind is ever so fickle. even when our conscious mind continues to baffle us, our subconscious holds more secrets to our true selves than we'll ever be able to comprehend. our subconscious is our true selves, in a way. we cannot lie to our subconscious mind, because we are incapable of controlling it.

everyone talks to themselves in their heads. going back and forth within our minds, trying to figure out solutions to problems, day in and day out. i came to this topic after seeing a brief flash from the movie inception and BOOM, the genesis of an idea.

i was wondering how cool it would be, if we could glance into our subconscious mind from a third person point of view. see how we really feel about our friends, family and associates. how we really perceive the world. most importantly, how we feel about ourselves.

i feel that our conscious mind is oddly twisted and distorted by circumstances, the people around us, and the urge to fit in to the people around us. we often try to lie to ourselves, and most times we choose to live with those lies instead of acknowledging the truth that we all know, deep inside of us. we're like that because we're human. it's probably a survival thing, because i think if we do choose to accept everything, we'll probably short circuit our own brains and die.

what if we could get past all these lies, that we've conjured up to fool ourselves, and get to the real person inside. suppose you're able to pry into your inner self. what if deep inside, you're really an ugly beast who's constantly lying to his/herself to cover up the guilt of all your inner intent?

always a delight to rant about meaningless things that nobody else understands. gd'day to you. (:
